A scholarly edition of works by Christopher Marlowe. The edition
presents an authoritative text, together with an introduction,
commentary notes, and scholarly apparatus.
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Weary of academic study, an eminent scholar turns to magic and
makes a deal with the Devil. Mephistopheles will serve him and give
him whatever he wants, but after twenty-four years Faustus must
keep his side of the bargain. This edition contains a detailed
introductory section that puts the play in its historical context,
in-depth textual notes, extracts from key critical works and
exam-style questions.
